Primordial Era: Becoming Laozi's Disciple, I Forge Mythical Golden Elixirs

"Bang."

The pill furnace opened, and the aroma of the pills wafted out.

[Detected that the host has refined nine Second-grade Immortal Spirit Elixirs, top quality.]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining one Magic Treasure Lightning Talisman.]

Luo Xuan slumped down, "How is it possible, how is it still not enough?"

After a long while, Luo Xuan's eyes hardened, "No, even if this next furnace of pills is ruined, I won't refine Immortal Spirit Elixirs anymore."

The stubbornness in Luo Xuan's heart was ignited.

He had never been one to admit defeat, otherwise, he wouldn't have managed to refine pills in an era that denied their existence.

Luo Xuan stood up, and a surge of energy emanated from his body.

Late True Immortal!

Of course, Luo Xuan's strength was far more complex than what was displayed.

Deep within his body, only he could feel a pill slowly rotating.

This was the product of Luo Xuan's constant tempering of himself with the Five Directions Cauldron, subtly connecting the Dao Patterns all over his body.

Once unleashed, it could even rival a Mysterious Immortal.

And the Immortal Power flowing within him was merely equivalent to the Elixir Qi of this pill.

Luo Xuan patted his face, then threw himself back into his work.

Outside the door, the Three Ancestors looked at Luo Xuan's house with worry.

Ziyi Clan frowned, "Luo Xuan hasn't come out for several months, is he alright?"

Youchaoshi shook her head, "With us here, what could happen? But if Luo Xuan can't refine a Three-Revolutions Golden Elixir, will he stay inside forever?"

A hint of worry flickered in her eyes.

Luo Xuan had told them from the beginning that he was going to refine a Three-Revolutions Golden Elixir.

He just didn't expect that so much time would pass and he still wouldn't be done?

"He will definitely come out." A voice reassured them.

The two looked back and saw Suiren Shi with a determined expression, "Luo Xuan will definitely refine a Three-Revolutions Golden Elixir."

Mount Sumeru.

A figure appeared in a cave dwelling.

Zhunti was overjoyed to see Jieyin appear, "Senior Brother, your seclusion has finally ended."

"Junior Brother, why are you in such a hurry?" Jieyin looked at Zhunti's anxious expression with slight confusion.

Zhunti said, "Senior Brother, do you remember Luo Xuan?"

"The one who drew down Merit a thousand years ago? What happened to him?" A thousand years, for powerful beings like them, was merely the duration of one seclusion.

Zhunti hurriedly said, "Senior Brother, that Luo Xuan has refined a Third-grade Elixir."

Jieyin chuckled, "It's just a Third-grade Elixir, why are you so anxious?"

As soon as Jieyin sat down, he exclaimed, almost jumping up.

"So many?!"

He had just scanned Shouyang Mountain with his divine sense and found piles of elixirs behind Luo Xuan.

All of them were Second-grade Immortal Spirit Elixirs.

Zhunti interjected, "Senior Brother, these are all that Luo Xuan has refined in the past few months."

For this child to refine so many elixirs at his current realm, if he were properly nurtured...

Jieyin's eyes flickered, and he finally sighed, "It would be wonderful if this child were born in the West."

Zhunti's eyes darted around, "Senior Brother, so much time has passed, and the Three Pure Ones haven't made any moves."

"Why don't we go and convert Luo Xuan first?"

Jieyin's eyes lit up.

Right, the Three Pure Ones hadn't made any moves yet, this was a perfect opportunity!

"Amitabha! Amitabha!"

Kunlun Mountain.

Yuanshi and Tongtian watched Luo Xuan refine pills with great interest.

"Second Brother, has Eldest Brother finished refining his pills yet?"

"Who knows." Yuanshi shrugged.

Not long ago, Laozi said he had gained some insights while watching Liu Ke refine pills and went into seclusion to refine them. He still hadn't come out, and no one knew what was going on.

At their current level, cultivation was a matter of slow progress.

Any insights gained are extremely precious, let alone insights gained by Laozi from a human at the Late True Immortal stage.

This left the two of them shocked and envious.

As they were speaking, their vision blurred, and they saw Laozi appear before them with a smile.

"Big Brother!" Tongtian smiled, "Did you gain anything from refining pills this time?"

"I have not failed my mission; I have made further improvements to the Three-Revolutions Golden Elixir!" Laozi smiled and then spread his hands.

The two of them looked closely and saw three pills in Laozi's hands.

Each pill was golden yellow, with profound Dao Patterns flowing around it, and each had three cloud-like patterns on it.

"The efficacy of this Three-Revolutions Golden Elixir must be at least fifty percent stronger than before!" Yuanshi and Tongtian exchanged glances and cupped their hands, "Congratulations, Big Brother, on your further advancement in the Pill Dao."

Although it was just a minor improvement to the Three-Revolutions Golden Elixir, Laozi's advancement in the Pill Dao was indeed worth congratulating.

Yuanshi said, "It seems Luo Xuan isn't that great either. He's refining the Three-Revolutions Golden Elixir, but he's not as fast as Big Brother."

As he spoke, Yuanshi secretly glanced at Laozi.

He was thinking that if Laozi really didn't think highly of Luo Xuan, wouldn't his chance arrive?

Laozi smiled faintly, "After all, he has just started. It is not easy to refine a Three-Revolutions Golden Elixir."

Laozi looked at Luo Xuan with even more relief, appearing like a master guiding a disciple.

Even his insights were something he had perceived from Luo Xuan.

The more Laozi looked at Luo Xuan now, the more he liked him.

Luo Xuan did not expect so many people to be paying attention to him.

Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care at this moment.

His eyes were fixed on the alchemy furnace, completely focused, as if afraid of missing any detail.

When the liquid in the alchemy furnace slowly condensed into the embryonic form of a pill, a look of joy appeared on Luo Xuan's face.

"Go!"

Luo Xuan poured his Immortal Power into the alchemy furnace and roared, as if releasing the pent-up frustration of many days.

Immediately after, Luo Xuan felt the medicinal power of the pill in the alchemy furnace expand.

"No way?" Luo Xuan's face fell as if he had thought of something.

The Three Ancestors, who were waiting for the result outside the courtyard, saw Luo Xuan's house collapse once again...

"Luo Xuan!" The Three Ancestors exclaimed in shock upon seeing this.

Suiren Shi was the first to rush forward.

The next moment, Suiren Shi's hair stood on end as if he felt a great danger, and he stopped his movement.

BOOM!

A bolt of lightning struck down instantly.

The Three Ancestors were stunned.

Was he afraid Luo Xuan wouldn't die thoroughly enough?

"Cough... cough..." Hearing the coughing sound, the stunned gaze of the Three Ancestors became lively again. He looked with surprise into the black smoke and saw a disheveled figure.

"Luo Xuan, are you alright?" The Three Ancestors asked with immense joy.

Luo Xuan shook his head and smiled, "I've refined the Three-Revolutions Golden Elixir."

As he spoke, Luo Xuan extended his hand, and a pill appeared before the Three Ancestors.

However, it was somewhat different from the one Laozi had refined; the pill was filled with twisted marks.

But upon closer inspection, they weren't cracks, just Dao Patterns that resembled lightning.

"I call it the Thunderfall Elixir. It can help one advance to True Immortal, and after consumption, lightning will be attached to the body, which can be comprehended or used to attack enemies."

As Luo Xuan explained, the Three Ancestors were dumbfounded.

The Three Pure Ones were so shocked their jaws dropped.

Lightning could be said to be the manifestation of laws in the Primordial Era. Even if it was crude, it was still a manifestation of the Great Dao Laws.

To be able to comprehend the power of lightning and also use it to attack enemies, what kind of concept was this?

While everyone was still in a daze, a patch of auspicious clouds descended from the sky, carrying immense Merit.

For a time, many powerful beings in the Primordial Era were once again awakened by the Merit.

On Phoenix Perch Mountain, Nuwa also opened her eyes in astonishment.
